Great question! Even if some individuals with celiac disease don’t experience immediate villi damage from occasional cross-contamination, it’s still strongly recommended to maintain strict avoidance of gluten. The immune response triggered by gluten can vary between individuals, and even small amounts may cause systemic inflammation or other symptoms, ev...

No, I would not say this at all. If you were diagnosed with celiac disease and were gluten-free for a while, you could have gone into remission. Everyone's body is different, and some celiacs may be able to get regular contamination and not end up with damaged villi and positive antibody tests, while others who ingest tiny amounts will relapse and have full...

Inflammation and Menier’s disease link?
Scott Adams replied to MagsM's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium. Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend... -

That’s a really insightful observation about antibody testing and the gluten challenge! You’re absolutely right that antibody levels can remain elevated for months or even years after going gluten-free, especially if there’s ongoing cross-contamination or occasional slip-ups. The immune system doesn’t reset overnight—it can take time for antibodies like tTG-...

While spices, lentils, beans and chickpeas are naturally gluten-free, the main concern with any brand is cross-contamination during processing and packaging. Since Suraj doesn't appear to certify their products as gluten-free or use dedicated gluten-free facilities, there is some risk of trace gluten exposure, especially with their corn flour which could...

Dapsone, commonly prescribed for dermatitis herpetiformis (the itchy gluten-related skin condition), comes with several potential side effects that patients should monitor. The most frequent issues include blood-related problems like hemolytic anemia (especially in those with G6PD deficiency, which is more common in certain ethnic groups) and methemoglobinemia...

It sounds like you've done an amazing job managing your health since going gluten-free in 2007, and it must be incredibly frustrating to experience these unexplained chest pains now. Since you were never formally tested for celiac disease, we can't rule out whether you have celiac or non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS), but your clear symptom improvement...

It's too bad they didn't diagnose her based on the positive tTg-IgA blood tests + family history. Marsh 3A does confirm celiac disease, but it’s great that the damage isn’t extensive! Even with moderate changes, symptoms can vary widely. Strict gluten-free eating should help heal the gut over time.

The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product...

The short answer is that it would be good for you to learn more about how to read labels, but sticking to looking for "gluten-free" on packaged foods is a great place to start. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.): If you have some time...

Gluten free parakeet food
Scott Adams replied to AllyJR's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Most commercial parakeet seed mixes contain gluten-based fillers like wheat or barley, but it is possible to find (or make) a gluten-free alternative. A good starting point is to look for mixes that focus on naturally gluten-free seeds like millet, flaxseed, hemp seeds, quinoa, and buckwheat—just double-check for cross-contamination. Some specialty pet s...- 1 reply

Around 9% of celiacs cannot tolerate any oats, even gluten-free oats. It might be worth eliminating them for a few months, then get re-tested.
